Cierra Munford, a UCF sophomore, is creating something beautiful to pay tribute to lives lost in a horrible tragedy.

June 12 is the one year remembrance of the tragedy at Pulse, but Thursday through "Reflections on Pulse," and those at UCF created art and shared tributes to the 49 victims.

Banners and white roses are also displayed in the heart of the campus in the Student Union.

Just outside the Student Union is a mural which features UCF student Juan Ramon Guerro and two time alumnus Christopher Andrew Leinonen who were killed in Pulse.

UCF invites the community to campus on Friday to give back for a day of reflection.

The City of Orlando and Orange County Government have jointly designated June 12, as "Orlando United Day: A Day of Love and Kindness," where people can give back at a number of companies, including Mustard Seed.
